American Life by Madonna

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
I (1)__________ to be a boy
I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess
I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong
That's why I wrote this song
This type of modern life
Is it for me?
This type of modern life
Is it for free?

So I went into a bar
Looking for sympathy
A little company
I tried to find a friend
It's more easily said
It's always been the same
This type of modern life
Is not for me
This type of (2)____________ life
Is not for free

American life
I live the American dream
You are the best (3)__________ I've seen
You are not just a dream

I (4)__________ to stay ahead
I tried to (5)________ on top
I tried to play the part
But some how I forgot
Just what I did it for
And why I wanted more
This type of modern life
Is it for me?
This type of modern life
Is it for free?

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I (6)__________ be a star?

American life
I live the American dream
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream

I (7)__________ to be a boy
Tried to be a girl
Tried to be a mess
Tried to be the best
Tried to find a friend
Tried to stay ahead
I (8)__________ to (9)________ on top
Fuck it

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose (10)________ weight?
Am I gonna be a star?

Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it

I'm (11)________________ a Soy latte
I get a double shoté
It goes right through my body
And you know I'm satisfied
I drive my Mini Cooper
And I'm feeling super-dooper
Yo they tell I'm a trooper
And you (12)________ I'm satisfied
I do yoga and palates
And the (13)________ is full of hotties
So I'm (14)________________ out the bodies
And you know I'm satisfied
I'm (15)______________ on the isotopes
This metaphysic's shit is dope
And if all this can give me hope
You know I'm satisfied
I got a lawyer and a manager
An agent and a chef
Three nannies, an assistant
And a driver and a jet
A trainer and a butler
And a (16)__________________ or five
A gardener and a stylist
Do you think I'm satisfied?
I'd like to express my extreme point of view
I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew
I'm just living out the American dream
And I just (17)________________ that nothing
Is (18)________ it seems

Do I (19)________ to (20)____________ my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
